Visor Guide brings AI-powered work instructions, training, and troubleshooting to your frontline teams, right on their phones and tablets. Create procedures in minutes. Trainers capture a process once—using the camera, voice, or existing documents—and Visor Guide’s AI assistant transforms it into a clear, step-by-step standard operating procedure (SOP). This SOP includes images and quality-control checkpoints. Guide every operator like your best one. Trainees follow guided, step-by-step instructions with photos and voice support. Built-in quality-control checkpoints verify each critical step, ensuring work is done right the first time, every time, by every operator. Troubleshoot with AI. When something goes wrong, operators describe the problem by voice or text and point their camera at the equipment. The AI troubleshooting assistant sees what they see and guides them through diagnosis and resolution in real time. Key features include AI-assisted SOP creation from video, voice, and documents. Visor Guide offers a guided, step-by-step execution process, complete with images and audio. Quality control checkpoints and records of completed work ensure accuracy. Real-time AI troubleshooting, powered by live camera context, helps troubleshoot issues on the fly. Voice input and hands-free speech recognition make interaction intuitive. Safety issue reporting is easy to manage, and role-based access allows trainers, admins, and operators to have different levels of access.
